Problem

3.0\,\text{m}

long uniform board of mass

12\,\text{kg}

rests on a fulcrum located

1.0\,\text{m}

from its left end. A child of mass

25\,\text{kg}

sits at the left end of the board. Where, measured from the fulcrum, should a second child of mass

35\,\text{kg}

sit on the right side so that the board remains balanced? a)

0.71\,\text{m}

to the right b)

1.08\,\text{m}

to the right c)

0.54\,\text{m}

to the right d)

0.89\,\text{m}
